Printer

[jennyjoan]

I am finally having to get a printer but I do only want to print very little ie receipts, some documentation.

I have looked at Argos and there is one for £40 which is ok. However I don't know what wireless means.

Would this be difficult to set up.

You'll struggle to find a laser printer cheaper than an inkjet.
If you are only doing very occasional printing I'm not sure it's worth it.
Laser jet printers use stuff called toner, which usually is more economical than ink (unless you do colour), but if you aren't printing much ...

yes do that JJ, better to let nephew have a go if you can't work it out, i needed AB help with setting mine up, chris put me right,

If you just go to the website they mention in the manual and follow the on screen instructions to connect, you should be fine.
Good luck!

I'll let you know how I get on

Actually, you can still print via a wire with a wifi enabled printer - I do just that for work printing. My printer is connected to my wifi and I mainly use that, but owing to security issues a can't do that from my work laptop, so I have a wire permanently plugged into the printer too, and just attach the laptop to the other end when I need to.

PPS my wire was about £4 on amazon

if you have a cable connection to your computer with your old printer it should work with the new one

I bought a HP wireless printer and managed to set it up easily which is a miracle! I now pay just £1.99 per month for ink and they send me new ones automatically when I have used so many copies. Some months I do a lot more and you just pay so much a month for extra copies but mostly there is enough for me.
